29 he will not be rich, and his wealth will not endure,
    nor will his possessions spread over the earth;[a]
30 he will not depart from darkness;
    the flame will dry up his shoots,
    and by (A)the breath of his mouth he will depart.
31 Let him not (B)trust in emptiness, deceiving himself,
    for emptiness will be his payment.
32 It will be paid in full (C)before his time,
    and his branch will not be green.
33 He will shake off his unripe grape like the vine,
    and cast off his blossom like the olive tree.
